I have been doing this
SELECT
movi.Usuario AS RowUsuario, movi.MovID, MIN(Art.Descripcion1),
MIN(com.ReferenciaExtra), MIN(com.Unidad), MIN(Art.UnidadCompra),
MIN(movi.FechaEmision),
error = CASE
WHEN MIN (com.Unidad) NOT LIKE
CASE
WHEN MIN (ar.Unidad) LIKE com.Unidad THEN art.Unidad
END
THEN 1
ELSE 0
END
FROM
CompraD com
INNER JOIN
Mov movi ON com.ID = movi.ID
INNER JOIN
Art ON com.Articulo = Art.Articulo
WHERE
movi.Mov = 'Requisicion
ORDER BY
movi.FechaEmision ASC
`when 'com.unidad' dont match with art.Unidad, add 1 or 0 if they match
SQL Server says:
incorrect syntax CASE
The incorrect syntax error is referring to the
error = CASE part.
It should be
CASE statement END AS error
However I'm not sure if that will solve your problem as the case statements looks a little odd to me but get that bit the right way around and then let us know of any further error messages.
Possibly...
SUM(CASE WHEN com.Unidad <> ar.Unidad THEN 1 ELSE 0 END AS error)
Also, you are missing a GROUP BY clause, if you want to use aggregate functions (MIN for example) you need to GROUP BY the non aggregate fields.
You have WHEN MIN (ar.Unidad) LIKE com.Unidad THEN art.Unidad but I do not see ar aliased anywhere.
Also you need to either have GROUP BY or OVER clause with your MINs.
If you want more details you'll have to give more details and context.

Hello I am missing something because my code errors.
select * from ##ScheduleDetail SD
left join ##HolidayFilterTbl HF on SD.Scheduledate = HF.Testdate
where (ScheduleDate = testdate)
and
(Case
when HF.IsHoliday = 1 then (overtime = 1 and makeup = 0)
else
(overtime = 0 and Makeup = 0)
end
)
and
DOW = 5
order by ActivityStartTime
I've attempted several combinations and each one errors at either the first equal sign or the second. What am I missing?
The branches of a case expression can only return values, not additional expressions to be evaluated in the where condition. You could, however, simulate this behavior with the and and or logical operators:
select *
from ##ScheduleDetail SD
left join ##HolidayFilterTbl HF on SD.Scheduledate = HF.Testdate
where (ScheduleDate = testdate) and
((HF.IsHoliday = 1 and overtime = 1 and makeup = 0) or
(overtime = 0 and Makeup = 0)) and
DOW = 5
order by ActivityStartTime
Note that you have makeup = 0 on both branches of the case expression in the question (or both sides of the or in the answer), so you could extract it out of it and simplify the condition a bit:
select *
from ##ScheduleDetail SD
left join ##HolidayFilterTbl HF on SD.Scheduledate = HF.Testdate
where ScheduleDate = testdate and
makeup = 0 and
((HF.IsHoliday = 1 and overtime = 1) or
overtime = 0) and
DOW = 5
order by ActivityStartTime
If you are still wanting to know how to utilize a CASE Statement Expression in a WHERE Clause the CASE Expression must be compared to a value as that is the syntax understood for conditions contained within a WHERE Clause. See below a mock example.
SELECT *
FROM ##ScheduleDetail SD
LEFT JOIN ##HolidayFilterTbl HF ON SD.Scheduledate = HF.Testdate
WHERE(ScheduleDate = testdate)
AND
/* If you wish to stick with using a CASE Expression within the WHERE Clause set the the CASE Expression equal to 'something'. I usually stick with 1 or 0 'true/false'.
| You simply have to create your own True/False evaluation. You can add your logic checks within a CASE Expression within
| the WHERE Clause and when your logic is TRUE THEN return 1. Basically you are saying when 1 = 1 then return Record.
*/
1 =
Case
WHEN HF.IsHoliday = 1 AND makeup = 0 THEN
CASE WHEN (overtime = 1 OR overtime = 0) THEN 1 END /* Return 1 here to evaluation to TRUE */
ELSE
0 /* You can add another CASE here if needed and when the condition you write in evaluations to 1 'true' return record */
END
AND
DOW = 5
ORDER BY ActivityStartTime;
There are a few reasons I've used CASE Expressions within a WHERE Clause over using AND/ORs. Just one minor reason is it allows me to contain and organize logic in a WHERE Clause inside CASE Expressions rather than having multiple AND/ORs all nested together. I've also found that using CASE Expressions in the WHERE Clause is useful when encountering Dynamic queries that accept variables to be later inserted into the SQL before being sent to the database for processing. In the case of using Dynamic SQL there are times when a CASE Statement MUST be used due to the fact that there could be data that is being compared against in the WHERE clause that is NOT a column.field value but a hardcoded value that is compared to perhaps a user selection or status (as examples)... it might be a static value passed in via the application which is how my web application works that I support which is why I bring it up.
Basically it's good to know how to use a CASE Expression in a WHERE Clause as there are some cases when the ONLY way to evaluate certain data is by using a CASE Expression .
I have no data to test this against and that's not the point. The point of my answer is to simply provide to you an alternative to the existing answer. In my opinion this logic is basic and the already provided answer is the correct one however my answer is to demonstrate how you could go about using a CASE in a WHERE Clause.
If interested see this SO Post for the differences between a CASE Statement vs a CASE Expression however know that this terminology slightly differs between databases.
As an example of this... SQL Server refers to these as Simple vs Searched but refers to all of it as a CASE Expression. Therefore a CASE Expression can either be a Simple or a Searched CASE that can be used within a Statement.
So I'm trying to put a subquery within a CASE statement. The subquery itself is working fine, but if I put it in another code it can't process. What can I do best to solve?
CASE WHEN dbo.T1.TYPE = 0
THEN dbo.Data.QTY * dbo.Data.SALESPRICE
ELSE
CASE WHEN dbo.T1.TYPE = 1
THEN dbo.Data.QTY *
(
SELECT dbo.Data.ID,
CASE WHEN SUM(dbo.Data.QTY) = 0
THEN SUM(dbo.Data.SALESPRICE)
ELSE SUM(dbo.Data.SALESPRICE) / SUM(dbo.Data.QTY)
END AS REVph
FROM dbo.Data LEFT OUTER JOIN
dbo.T1ON dbo.Data.ID = dbo.T1.ID
WHERE (dbo.T1.TYPE = 1)
GROUP BY dbo.Data.ID
)
ELSE 0
END
END
You are using a subquery in a context where a single value is allowed. Such a subquery is called a scalar subquery.
However, the subquery is returning more than one column. That is not allowed. A scalar subquery can only return one column and at most one row.
Your question is rather unclear on what you want to accomplish, so I can only explain the problem that you are having.
I'm trying to run a SQL query but an error happens when I run it.
Error:
[Code: -811, SQL State: 21000]
The result of a scalar fullselect, SELECT INTO statement, or VALUES INTO statement is more than one row..
SQLCODE=-811, SQLSTATE=21000, DRIVER=4.19.49
This is the SQL query that I am trying to run, I believe there is a problem with my CASE statement, I'm running out of solution. Please help, thanks a lot!
SELECT
ES.SHPMNT_REF,
(CASE
WHEN (ES.SERVICE_PROVIDER_NAME) IS NULL
THEN (SELECT BRDB.EXPORT_ONHAND.SERVICE_PROVIDER_NAME
FROM BRDB.EXPORT_ONHAND
WHERE BRDB.EXPORT_ONHAND.SHPMNT_REF = ES.SHPMNT_REF)
ELSE (ES.SERVICE_PROVIDER_NAME)
END) AS SP
FROM
BRDB.EXPORT_SHIPMENT ES
WHERE
ES.DATE_CREATE > CURRENT TIMESTAMP - 30 DAYS
I think this is what you are after. Joining on the table data you might need, then letting COALESCE check for null and get the other data if it is.
SELECT
ES.SHPMNT_REF,
COALESCE(ES.SERVICE_PROVIDER_NAME, OH.SERVICE_PROVIDER_NAME) AS SP
FROM BRDB.EXPORT_SHIPMENT ES
LEFT JOIN BRDB.EXPORT_ONHAND AS OH
ON ES.SHPMNT_REF = OH.SHPMNT_REF
WHERE
ES.DATE_CREATE > CURRENT TIMESTAMP - 30 DAYS
Maybe you should put inside the case:
THEN (SELECT TOP 1 BRDB.EXPORT_ONHAND.SERVICE_PROVIDER_NAME
The error is thrown because your subquery returns multiple values.
The best way would be joining the two table first and then get the value you need when the value is NULL.
That should work:
SELECT
ES.SHPMNT_REF
,CASE
WHEN ES.SERVICE_PROVIDER_NAME IS NULL
THEN EO.SERVICE_PROVIDER_NAME
ELSE ES.SERVICE_PROVIDER_NAME
END AS 'SP'
FROM BRDB.EXPORT_SHIPMENT ES
LEFT JOIN BRDB.EXPORT_ONHAND EO
ON ES.SHPMNT_REF = EO.SHPMNT_REF
WHERE ES.DATE_CREATE > CURRENT TIMESTAMP - 30 DAYS
I'm creating a report in SSRS and I can't use the IIF statement within the report to get the following done. I'm getting aggregate errors when I try to sum within the SSRS report.
`IIF(Fields!Period=0,0,IIF(Period=13,0,Balance/12))`
Works fine up until the moment I try to Sum.. get a silly aggregate error "Aggregate functions other than First, Last, Previous, Count, and Count Distinct can only aggregate data of a single data type"... These are all integers.
Basically I have a value in Master.Balance that I need to divide by 12 only when Secondary.Period equals 0 or 13. If Secondary.Period equals 0 or 13 then the value should be 0. I know my problem has to do with including the relationship between the tables, but I just don't know how to write that in.
Here is what I'm trying to use:
`CASE
WHEN Secondary.Period=0 OR Secondary.Period=13
THEN 0
ELSE Master.Balance/12
End As BudByPer`
Here is how the two tables are related to each other:
`FROM Master LEFT OUTER JOIN Secondary
ON Master.Project = Secondary.Project
AND Master.object = Secondary.object
AND Master.org = Secondary.org
`
How do I get the above into this:
SELECT DISTINCT Master.Project, Master.Object, Master.Fund, Master.Segment, Master.Balance, Secondary.project, Secondary.object, Secondary.org, Secondary.Period, Secondary.object, Secondary.Project.
FROM Master LEFT OUTER JOIN Secondary
ON Master.Project = Secondary.Project
AND Master.object = Secondary.object
AND Master.org = Secondary.org
WHERE (Master.object>=600000)
ORDER BY [Master.Fund]
You just need a select, it looks fine to me...
SELECT
Master.account,
Master.segment,
Secondary.desc,
Secondary.bud,
Segment.Num,
Segment.office,
CASE
WHEN Secondary.Period=0 OR Secondary.Period=13 THEN 0
ELSE Master.Balance/12
End As BudByPer
FROM Master
LEFT JOIN Secondary
ON Master.Project = Secondary.Project
AND Master.object = Secondary.object
AND Master.org = Secondary.org
I have the following sql statement and I want to update a field on the rows returned from the select statement. Is this possible with my select? The things I have tried are not giving me the desired results:
SELECT
Flows_Flows.FlowID,
Flows_Flows.Active,
Flows_Flows.BeatID,
Flows_Flows.FlowTitle,
Flows_Flows.FlowFileName,
Flows_Flows.FlowFilePath,
Flows_Users.UserName,
Flows_Users.DisplayName,
Flows_Users.ImageName,
Flows_Flows.Created,
SUM(CASE WHEN [Like] = 1 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS Likes,
SUM(CASE WHEN [Dislike] = 1 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS Dislikes
FROM Flows_Flows
INNER JOIN Flows_Users ON Flows_Users.UserID = Flows_Flows.UserID
LEFT JOIN Flows_Flows_Likes_Dislikes ON
Flows_Flows.FlowID=Flows_Flows_Likes_Dislikes.FlowID
WHERE Flows_Flows.Active = '1' AND Flows_Flows.Created < DATEADD(day, -60, GETDATE())
Group By Flows_Flows.FlowID, Flows_Flows.Active, Flows_Flows.BeatID,
Flows_Flows.FlowTitle, Flows_Flows.FlowFileName, Flows_Flows.FlowFilePath,
Flows_Users.UserName, Flows_Users.DisplayName, Flows_Users.ImageName,
Flows_Flows.Created
Having SUM(CASE WHEN [Like] = 1 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) = '0' AND SUM(CASE WHEN [Dislike] = 1
THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) >= '0'
This select statement returns exactly what I need but I want to change the Active field from 1 to 0.
yes - the general structure might be like this: (note you don't declare your primary key)
UPDATE mytable
set myCol = 1
where myPrimaryKey in (
select myPrimaryKey from mytable where interesting bits happen here )
Because you haven't made your question more clear in what result you want to achieve, I'll provide an answer with my own assumptions.
Assumption
You have a select statement that gives you stuffs, and it works as desired. What you want it to do is to make it return results and update those selected rows on the fly - basically like saying "find X, tell me about X and make it Y".
Anwser
If my assumption is correct, unfortunately I don't think there is any way you can do that. A select does not alter the table, it can only fetch information. Similarly, an update does not provide more detail than the number of rows updated.
But don't give up yet, depending on the result you want to achieve, you have alternatives.
Alternatives
If you just want to update the rows that you have selected, you can
simply write an UPDATE statement to do that, and #Randy has provided
a good example of how it will be written.
If you want to reduce calls to server, meaning you want to make just
one call to the server and get result, as well as to update the
rows, you can write store procedures to do that.
Store procedures are like functions you wrote in programming languages. It essentially defines a set of sql operations and gives them a name. Each time you call that store procedure, the set of operations gets executed with supplied inputs, if any.
So if you want to learn more about store procedures you can take a look at:
http://www.mysqltutorial.org/introduction-to-sql-stored-procedures.aspx
If I understand correctly you are looking for a syntax to be able to select the value of Active to be 0 if it is 1. The syntax for something like that is
SELECT
Active= CASE WHEN Active=1 THEN 0 ELSE Active END
FROM
<Tables>
WHERE
<JOIN Conditions>
